THIS WEEK in Northern California
[#2430H]
May 17, 2013Guest Host: Scott Shafer. News Panel: GOV. BROWN'S MAY REVISED BUDGET - Gov. Jerry Brown's revised budget is $1.3 billion leaner than his original budget released in January. With a surge in state tax revenue and no deficit for the first time in years, Republicans cheered the governor's caution against spending. Democrats were less enthused. Schools appear to be the big winner with $2.9 billion in additional funding, but there are no increases for severely cut social safety net programs or for prison population reduction. Gov. Brown cited federal sequestration cuts, falling wages and higher Social Security payroll taxes as obstacles to the state's economic recovery, warning "It's a call for prudence, not exuberance. " NEW INQUIRIES INTO BAY BRIDGE BOLTS - A state Senate committee grilled Caltrans officials Tuesday over the 2,300 galvanized steel rods on the new $6.4 billion eastern span of the Bay Bridge, whose installation and safety is now questionable. The hearing came a day after the Federal Highway Administration agreed to investigate Caltrans' decision-making process and the $10 million fix for the 32 rods that have already failed. VETERAN BENEFITS UNTAPPED - Veterans returning from war find there are yet other battles to wage at home: from weathering the long-term effects of trauma to finding stable jobs and housing. In California, a state program to help veterans buy homes remains largely unspent: last year, only 83 loans totaling $10.5 million were originated, despite over $ 1 billion in available funds. Democratic Assembly Speaker John A. Perez has taken aim at the program, adding to the clamor of voices demanding that veterans get more help, and in a more timely fashion. Guests: Josh Richman, Bay Area News Group; Jaxon Van Derbeken, San Francisco Chronicle; Aaron Glantz, Center for Investigative Reporting. ANNA DEAVERE SMITH PITCHES EMPATHY - It's not a word often heard in politics and on the news, but "empathy" is something that today's leaders might want to cultivate at least, so says performer and playwright Anna Deavere Smith. In an upcoming workshop in San Francisco, Smith aims to teach the art of empathy, and it's not just for actors. "Who is that boss that you're gonna go in and talk to if you would like a raise?" said Smith. "Who is that person you're about to fire?" Scott Shafer talks with Smith about how empathy can be a useful tool in many of life's arenas.duration 27:46

Washington Week
[#5246H]
A trifecta of troubles dogged the Obama administration this week. There was the continuing fallout from the deadly attacks on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya. Then news broke that the Internal Revenue Service has been targeting conservative groups when they applied for tax exempt status. And finally it was revealed that the Justice Department had secretly seized the telephone records of Associated Press reporters as part of an investigation into classified leaks. By mid-week President Obama announced that he had asked for, and accepted, the resignation of Acting IRS Commissioner Steven Miller. On the same day the White House released 100 pages of emails between the CIA, White House and State Department written in the wake of the Benghazi attacks, and Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the House Judiciary Committee about the Justice Department's probe of AP reporters as part of an investigation into a story about a terrorist plot in Yemen. Despite the actions taken, the Obama administration continues to face harsh criticism from Republicans over a lack of transparency and the perceived politicization of the IRS. Conservative lawmakers are also demanding more details about the events at the diplomatic mission in Benghazi as well information on what, if any, involvement the White House had in the Justice Department's leak investigation. Gwen will discuss the politics and policy surrounding this week's "scandals" as well as details from Friday's House hearings on the actions of the IRS with Gloria Borger of CNN, John Dickerson of Slate Magazine and CBS News, John Harwood of CNBC and The New York Times, and Ed O'Keefe of The Washington Post.duration 26:46

Mexico -- One Plate at a Time with Rick Bayless
[#902H]
Oaxaca's Live-Fire CookingEverything tastes better cooked over a wood or charcoal fire - at least that's the Oaxacan credo. From soup to barbacoa, burning embers influence the flavor of Oaxaca's food in just the right ways. For starters, Rick guides us through the "taco corridor" at the 20 de Noviembre market just off the main square in Oaxaca. We can almost taste the richly-burnished chiles and onions as they grill alongside super-thinly sliced beef and pork and robust chorizo sausages. Then we see hot rocks plucked from the glowing embers and dropped into hot soup for making caldo de piedra (stone soup), a specialty from the village of San Felipe Usila. La Capilla, a campestre (open air) restaurant, in the town of Zaachilla, has served lamb and goat barbacoa for more than 47 years. Rick's so enamored with the process of burying the chile-seasoned meat in glowing embers that he creates his own version on the backyard grill. Served with Oaxacan pasilla tomatillo salsa, there's meat, fire and smoke in every bite.duration 26:46
